Melodie never wanted an open marriage. But when her husband gave her a choice-agree to it or divorce. She chose survival. With her job as a kindergarten teacher barely covering her medical bills, losing his health insurance wasn't an option. So, she stayed, watching the man she once loved cycle through women like a revolving door, until the last of her feelings for him withered away.
Then she meets Declan.
A towering, tattooed billionaire with a sharp wit and a disarming charm, Declan Mckenna is everything her husband isn't-attentive, kind, and utterly captivating. One night at a bar turns into something more, and for the first time in years, Melodie remembers what it feels like to be wanted. Cherished. Loved.
But when her husband realizes he's no longer the only one enjoying their "arrangement," he doesn't take it well. What starts as manipulation quickly turns dangerous, and Melodie is faced with a choice of her own-stay trapped in a life that's slowly killing her, or risk everything for a future with the man who makes her feel alive.
One thing is certain. Declan isn't letting her go without a fight.
The Love Ultimatum is a steamy billionaire romance. It includes a forced open marriage, explicit content, and profanity. Recommended for mature readers only.
